Narrative:
Avro Anson Mk. XII PH835, Transport Command Aircrew Examining Unit (TCAEU), RAF: Written off (damaged beyond repair) 25 February 1946. The port brake had been noted as 'unserviceable' prior to this flight, and it was also noted that the starboard brake was binding.

On landing at RAF Waterbeach, the brake failed, the Anson swung off the runway, and the undercarriage collapsed. Fortunately, there were no injuries to the seven persons on board
